Hey guys,
I've got a huge show coming up at a local festival in Colorado - The Dragon Boat Festival. We made a good impression last year so they are giving us our own slot - this Saturday @ 1PM!!
I wanted to start this thread to see what you veterans do to make sure you're gig ready: weighted more towards preparing your Axe FX, but any general tips are welcome as well.
I've played out enough to make sure I've got:
AXE II MFC 101 Checks:
General Gig Checks:
Thanks any any other advice,
Brandon

I've played out enough to make sure I've got:
AXE II MFC 101 Checks:
- My patch levels are even
- Check all pedals to ensure they don't raise or lower the volume (unless it's intended)
- Test each patch in a pre-recorded mix to ensure it cuts through, just enough.
- Bring an extra Ethernet cable (for MFC)
General Gig Checks:
- Bring extra strings and an extra guitar (if you can spare it)
- Extra wireless receiver batteries
- Extra guitar cable in case wireless fails
- Pack up as early as possible and make sure you're not forgetting anything
Thanks any any other advice,
Brandon
